Hi Troops,
I am looking for a possible connection to my Gilbert family of Shirehampton to the Gilbert's of Forest of Dean. The other attached family names of Thomas, Cox, Edwards, Ford and Cecil may also attract attention.
My William Gilbert was born circa 1857 and was buried St. Marys Shirehampton 26.12.1819. He married 30.10.1800 WestburyOnTrym to Honor Edwards [nee Thomas]. His father maybe Richard Gilbert of Newland parish.

Any assistance would be much appreciated.

Cheers

Assume you mean: William GILBERT c 1757 - buried 26 December 1819

Are there any witnesses at the wedding

Children of Richard & Mary GILBERT christened at Newland

Mary - 12 March 1743 - father Rich(ar)d & Mary
Richard - 31 December 1744 of Coleford
Mary - 11 January 1747
Thomas - 10 December 1749 of Coleford
William - 27 June 1752 of Coleford
James - 20 March 1757 - father Rich(ar)d & Mary

James GILBURT - 24 August 1761 - father Rich(ar)d & Mary

Surname variations: i.e. GILBART/GILBIRT etc for burials/christenings etc.
